Fedora 10 : prewikka-0.9.14-2.fc10 (2009-3761)

high Nessus Plugin ID 38184

Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing a security update.

Description

The permissions on the prewikka.conf file are world readable and contain the sql database password used by prewikka. This update makes it readable just by the apache group.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Update the affected prewikka package.
